    Can we have an otakon thread? Who are you going as? With anybody? How many times have you attended? Are you traveling a lot to get there? How much progress have you made on your cosplay? Plans? Any meet-ups you going to? etc...

    A list of all the meet-ups and photoshoots can be found here:

    Ah, thanks for the cosplay.com thread. Last year I missed a shoot due to not remembering the OUTSIDE-outside fountains. I had thought it meant the ones on the pavilion.

    I've posted what I'm doing in a few other threads, so feel free to ask or look around. I'll feel retarded to just KEEP POSTING WHO I AM DOING.

    Shit I've been going since I was a rugrat.

    And, one more question:
    Where's everybody staying? I'd feel safer knowing about other congoers heading to the same place. A friend of mine got mugged Thursday last year, and I don't make a habit of ever wandering around Baltimore alone late at night, con or no.

    I'm 5'2" and it doesn't bother me. I also live in a city of predominately Hispanic ethnicity so most girls tend to be my height or shorter anyway, although I suspect anywhere else 5'2" would be considered short??

    I haven't used it or heard much about it but what I've been told is that it's free (lemme double check though) and I don't want to sound like too much of a pessimist but there's usually a certain type of crowd you should expect when there's free transportation.
    >> Ukraine 04/28/11(Thu)19:06 No.4400009
    Going as:
    Claudia from AC Brotherhood
    Kamila from Ghost Trick.
    Kay Faraday from AA Investigations
    And I'm thinking of making Flora from Professor Layton...but I have yet to decide if I feel like making another costume.

    Both Kamila and Claudia have groups associated with them. Super excite <3

    Fuck yeah.

    >Who are you going as?
    Tetra from the LOZ: Wind Waker and then I'll be Hilda from Pokemon Black and White

    >With anybody?
    Yes, a few friends.

    >How many times have you attended?
    5 times starting in 2006

    >Are you traveling a lot to get there?
    No about a 30-45 minute drive with good traffic

    >How much progress have you made on your cosplay?
    Tetra is complete. I just got a new wig that's super thick and will be great for her stupid hairstyle. Hilda on the other hand I've only finished the wig and need to go gather supplies for her. I'll probably wait till the last minute though anyway. Oh well.

    >Plans
    This otakon I plan on meeting new people. I've gotten ditched once to many times and I'm just looking to have fun.

    >Any meetups you're going to?
    Hopefully the pokemon one. Should be fun :)

    I just hope someone doesn't pull the fire alarm again. That was living hell.

    The free transport consist of some hired shuttles, I believe. I was at the Holiday Inn Express [NOT RECOMMENDED -- Too far and dubious crowd there, since it's the last-resort hotel] and used the shuttle after a horrible trek across the Russell St. overpass.

    Fed Hill's close enough to walk, IMO.

    Oh, and an unrelated comment: I am so sad everybody's doing Fairy Tail cosplay NOW, because I am, as far as I know, the only Rave Master [Hiro Mashima's previous manga] cosplayer in existence. I'm kinda wtf'd because half the characters are really similar.

    This will be my second Otakon, but last year I could only make it half of saturday, and sunday so I really did not get to experience much. Driving down from NJ so its not that bad of a ride. Planned cosplay is Flynn Rider, but I need to get the vest commissioned if anyone has any suggestions. Aside from that, partying partying hard.

    So you're complaining that you wanted to be the only Rave Master cosplayer but irked that Fairy Tail got more popular instead so now you can't get recognition?
    >> ThatGirl 04/28/11(Thu)19:56 No.4400199
    >>4400169

    No, not really... I DEFINITELY don't want to be the ONLY Rave Master cosplayer. I want PLENTY of RM cosplayers, it's got some good designs!
    It's just I've made a fool of myself by asking various FT cosplayers if they were doing RM, and half of them haven't read it.

    And, well, I prefer RM and think it's stupid that Mashima recycled so many of the designs. Mystogan/Fernandes guy are nearly carbon copies of Sieg Hart, who is one of my favourite Rave Master characters. Those guys also seem to be very popular cosplay for guys doing FT. Hence, I make an ass of myself.

    I've done ELIE several times; Five or six people have recognised me, and it's made me the happiest person -ever- when they did. I kinda just want a Musica who likes RM, or a Sieg, or Shuda, or Nagisa, or any of ten dozen characters that are great.
    Too few people like RM.

    >With anybody?
    Husband, daughter and friends.

    >How many times have you attended?

    >Are you traveling a lot to get there?
    From the western IL area. So yeah. I think it is like a 20-something hour drive.

    >How much progress have you made on your cosplay?
    Not much. Ada and Juvia are the only ones that are almost done.

    >Plans?
    Hang out with friends, meet new friends and hoping to find swag from series I never see merchandise from.

    Dumb me! I forgot to put my plans in my own thread!

    >Who are you going as?
    I'm going as Ness from Earthbound or Mother 2, also White Mage from FFTA. Finally, I'm also going as Brief from P&SwithG! My 12 year old brother is going as Syaoran Li from CCS (He makes his own costumes, so i don't have to worry about that!) and J.P from Digimon Frontier. He is also going with his best friend as Peter Griffin and Cleveland Brown from Family Guy.

    >With anybody?
    My lil brother and his friend, probably some of my friends too.

    >How many times have you attended?
    0 :(

    >Are you traveling a lot to get there?
    About 30 minute drive

    >How much progress have you made on your cosplay?
    Brief is done and Ness is 90% done. My lil brother is 10% done with Syaoran Li and 0% with the others, but he is going to buy Peter's stuff anyway.

    >Plans
    Photoshoots, meet-ups, and a few panels. Also want to meet Brental Floss, and LittleKuriboh if he comes.

    >Any meetups you're going to?
    Digimon and Clamp meet-up for my brother. PSG for me alongside Brawl one if there is one, and Final Fantasy one (maybe)!

    Three months till Otabutts? Hory shit.

    Anyways I'm going to drink at this Con, and meeting up with friends too cause this might be my last time to this Con ever.

    Also I believe we should not have a /cgl/ meet up this year. I mean with the events from last year and a person getting banned I'm just afraid he/she might use this as an act of revenge among the community. Besides I already know the friends that come to the meet up and I'll just hang out with them. Why need a meet up anymore?

Funny thing was, he was the first person in that con or anywhere in the world for that manner to take a picture of me in cosplay (since that was my first cosplay). Does anyone have a picture of him in his anon cosplay? I didn't take a picture of him unfortunately. I just find this a huge coincidence.

    Anime Boston 2011 was my first anime convention and I had a great time, so I told my friend who is thinking of going to Otakon this year that I want to go.

    >Costume
    I'll reprise my role from AB as the Quantum Ranger but I might also try a costume that more than 5% of congoers would recognize - someone at AB said I'd make a good Gendo Ikari so I'm messing with that idea.

    >Plans
    I didn't really meet anyone at AB so I'll try one of the dances and generally being more social this time around. Of course I'll also play a lot of Tekken and Mortal Kombat, maybe some Mahvel if I'm in the mood for dildos. I'm not an anime fan (I love Evangelion, though) so I doubt I'll go to many panels.

    Wandering around, dealer's room, and just general tomfoolery.

    This will be my first Otakon! I plan on cosplaying Keimi for my friend's One Piece group. I think I will bring Black Canary as well. Not sure yet.

    Going as :
    Lady from DMC 3
    Tali'zorah from ME2
    Maya Fey (Spirit Medium and Waitress)

    I'm also bringing my NCR ranger costume since I had to scrub plans for making Power Armor due to the fact that I already had too many costumes planned. I'll also bring BS Jill.

    I'll be going with my boyfriend and probably about 10-15 others.

    I'm from Baltimore even though I don't live there anymore. My mom still does so I'll be crashing at home.

    This will be my 11th Otakon.

    Tali - 20% done
    Lady - 30% done
    Maya (waitress) - 60% done
    Her spirit medium costume I finish about a month ago.

    I'll be going to all the shoots for the various series' I'm cosplaying, as well as the MvC shoot. I'm trying to set up a Fallout shoot too.

    >I don't usually go to them, but I might hit up something if it's at a convenient time and/or I remember when and where it is. I'm the worst at paying attention to time at cons. Got a friend a little mad at me for missing an autograph session I was supposed to go to for her at Katsu.

    -Working on a Henry from No More Heroes 2 cosplay, maybe more, will see how it goes.
    -Rooming with a local friend, have several friend groups I will hang out with there.
    -This will be my 4th Otakon.
    -I'm an hour and half away.
    -Not a lot of progress, but a friend is helping me work on some of the more elaborate pieces, such as the sword.
    -Every voice acting panel/workshop, general fun times and money wasting.
    -Will definitely be at any Homestuck or One Piece meetups, I doubt there'll be a No More Heroes one ;_;

    This will be my very first, despite being a native of the state. Fuck, I'm such a late-bloomer.

    I'm going to try to tag along with some local friends who did GoW cosplay last year. If they have plans to cosplay as a group, then I'll play along if I like it.

    As for myself? I'm going to try to make my debut. I'm thinking Male!Taiwan, but also something SOOPAR SPESHUL SEKRIT that'll likely blow a few minds.

    Other plans include going to raves and finding my beshert. (Barring that, scoring with a conslut and hopefully not contracting anything too bad.)

    My husband. He was upset that he didn't go last year. Big baby...anyway, I'm trying to get a hotel group together, but NO ONE seems to know WTF they're doing, so it's still a bit up in the air about who I'm rooming with.

    >How many times have you attended?
    Once.
    Last year.
    Fuck what a year to attend.

    >Are you traveling a lot to get there?
    Meh, 2 hours.

    >How much progress have you made on your cosplay?
    NONE. lol I'm working like a dog right now before we hire new people and my hours are whittled down to nothing, so I have very little time for anything.
    I really don't want to buy the Amestris uniforms because most of the ones I've seen had that shitty BRIGHT SHINY SILVER trim on them. But with me hopefully losing weight (last year's uniform is kinda loose on me now (must be doing SOMETHING right)), my crazy work schedule, and my husband doing Mustang (I have him 80% convinced to do it) I just might have to.
    Any recommendations on where to buy it?

    >Plans?
    I WILL get to a damned panel this year!

    >Any meet-ups you going to?
    I want a fucking Derpy-Chan meetup. We all wear our derpy creations and just sit around and derp out, like a boss.
    I would like to get an over 21 /cgl/ meetup at a bar or something.

    SIde note: To the Otacon that has the MGS cardboard sign that says 'This is where I get my Japanese anime' and who can do that freaky thing with your arm (you know)...Mwah. Love yah, bro, you're fuck awesome to hang around with. Hope to see you again.
